| Abstract |
|
It has been known that the prognosis for ABO incompatibility is not as grave as Rh incompatibility
and damage to the neurological system due to kernicterus is rather rare in ABO incompatibility.
This is report of a case (father A, Rh positive & mother O, Rh positive) of ABO incompatibility
showing two children manifesting severe neurological signs due to kernicterus and a case of one child
who with adequate treatment manifested no clinical sequel of kernicterus.
A general review regarding pathogenesis, clinical manifestation, laboratory findings and treatment of
ABO incompatibility is done with specific consideration to this case.
